I can't beleive July is half over already. Despite all the crazy storms the weather here has been good so we've had lots of outdoor fun already. I've been working lots so the boys are getting settled in with the new sitter. All is well so far so lets cross our fingers. We've had lots of visits with friends and family so far and there is lots to come. We are off to Okotoks tomorrow. Tyler and I are going to catch the end of the stampede and see the Jason Aldean concert. We are hoping to take the boys to the Calgary zoo too. Here are a few pics of our summer fun.

I'm now the momma of a 3 year old. We had Cohen's birthday on May 8th. It was fun and chaos. He was absolutely spent by the end of the day. Lots of great gifts...best gift of all was all the wonderful people who shared the day with us. The sun is out so I'm making this brief but here are some pics and a video of the big day.

NIXON IS WALKING!!!! Sort of.... he has finally taken his first steps. He thinks its hilraious that he can stand on his own but he's still a bit leary of the walking part. He can take about 4 or 5 steps well, usually resorting to crawling around the 3 step mark. He is so shaky its adorable. He also popped his second tooth which caused us a few sleepless nights before appearing. He is the happiest one year old in the world.. greets each day with a smile.

Cohen has been loving the nice weather. Its back to the challenge of keeping him indoors for any length of time. He's done some horse riding lately. The other night at roping he actually rode all by himself. Dad's idea, not mom's. It didn't phase him at all... he prefers to do things on his own anyway. He is anxiously awaiting his birthday. He asks every few days if his birthday is here yet. He definitely gets how birthdays work....cake.....attention.....presents. What more could a 3 year old want.

Hope eveyone is well...enjoy the nice weather.
